Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Extremely Unprofessional and Invalidating!
To start, she was running nearly an hour behind which led to her rushing through my entire appointment that I waited an entire month for. She was extremely invalidating to my IUD concerns and blatantly refused to take it out after not being able to locate it herself. For being a female “advocate” and healthcare professional, I felt so dismissed as she was more interested in discussing where I got my shoes from rather than hearing out my concerns affecting my daily life. I had heard negative stories of other patient’s experiences with her but took the risk as she was the only female provider available for the next few months. Avoid the Independence Women’s Clinic and Kiersten Moreno at all costs unless you enjoy such invalidation and unprofessionalism.

Excellent care
I have been a patient of this practice for over 25 years. My doctor retired which prompted me to see Dr. Moreno this visit. Her bedside manner was excellent and she provided me with compassionate care. Dr. Moreno has a genuine demeanor and I felt heard. Thank you!

If you are wanting someone who makes all the decisions for you and doesn't take your opinion into account, she is your person. She will play it off like the situation she doesn't feel she has the upper hand with are do ot die, making you feel like you will hurt your baby if you do not choose what she wants. She will belittle you if you do not fall in line and even suggest you should have gone to another hospital while you are in the middle of labor.

I was skeptical of finding a new OB/GYN that actually cared and listened to my concerns, but Dr. Moreno has been going above and beyond for me this whole pregnancy. With any issues that arise, she makes sure to take it seriously and listens to me, and when it isn't anything to worry about, she makes sure to explain why its normal, instead of just saying it's fine and leaving it at that. She is extremely patient, kind, and understanding, and I'm glad to have found her.
